Thanks. I will try and make a little video showing everything that has been done to the truck. My plans for this build was to make crazy power with small cubes and at the same time have the show quality as well. Ill put the truck on the lift so I can show y'all very thing that was done to it and also so I can show off my $1500 carbon fiber drive shaft :-)

Holy ****!!! Very impressive indeed!!! I love it when someone does alot with little, and I don't necessarily mean money! In your case its displacement! Seems like rpm and compression is the key huh? That's what I've always thought anyway. Imagine that setup on a dome piston 4.8L with like 13:1 CR and 9000 rpm. Would be fun too! Love how clean it is as well. Congrats man! I'll be waiting to see/hear more from this truck ;D

Thanks guys for the comments. I like to be different so that's why I don't mind spending the cash on my builds. I get a little carried away but enjoy while doing it.

Truck has DJM control arms and the drop is a 5/7. My diff was narrowed 3 inches on each side to get the dip dish look. Wheels are 15x12 Bogarts and the rear tires are 29.5x13.5 wide. Let me know if I left out any info that you needed so i can give you that missing info. Thanks

Ahh. That explains the big *** tires. Was thinking it was mini tubbed or something. When you say thats Holleys new intake, are you refering to the mini ram? Ive been looking into that intake
Just dont know how good itll do if im only spinning to 6500
